Season's Greetings from FLiP
Greetings!
 
On behalf of the Female Leaders in Philanthropy, we hope your holidays are full of good friends, family, and much joy. 
             FLiP Holiday Membership Meeting
The holiday membership meeting held on December 11th was a great success! A big thank you to Dr. Nancy O'Reilly for opening her beautiful home for our meeting. Also, thank you to those that were able to come and celebrate this spectacular year with us!

During the meeting we had the wonderful opportunity to receive generous donations from several FLiP friends. First, Randy Johnson, the President and CEO of Oakstar bank presented FLiP with the bank's third annual contribution to the Suit Yourself Boutique. The second generous contribution came from Central Trust and Investment Company.  Jami Peebles, the Executive Vice President and Regional Manager, was with us to present that check to FLiP.


But the giving spirit wasn't through yet! Nancy Berlin, the director of development at the Ozark's Regional YMCA joined our FLiP family with a wonderfully generous donation to help with FLiP programs. And last, but certainly not least Sallie Hazelrigg, the Regional Vice President of Mercy Philanthropy, presented a check for $3,000 in proceeds from the Mercy Sunshine Run. 

Did you know?
FLiP purchased clothing for the kids in need at the W. Chestnut Head Start?
And they're so grateful!

2013 Membership Meetings
The 2013 FLiP calendar is in the works....

Would you prefer to move the membership meetings to Thursday instead of Tuesday afternoons?



The Suit Yourself Boutique is open on Tuesday afternoons from 4:30 - 6:00pm. That means that if you are volunteering at the boutique, you will miss the membership meeting that is scheduled for that same evening. The next best meeting dates are the third Thursdays of the month.

Let Megan Blevins know what you prefer at mblevins@uwozarks.com or 863-7700. Please respond by December 31st. Thank you!
